August is over and we are now officially in the ‘ber months, time to get cosy & start enjoying all the beautiful autumn colours and twinkle lights ….

I hate to use the “C” word but I have already started taking orders for advent calendars & boxes

have already started selling on Etsy so be quick to grab one, doesn’t hurt to be prepared

I will hopefully be loading some premade advent calendars, reusable reindeer food pouches etc onto etsy, but please drop me a message on any page or if you have my number to order, if it goes as quickly as this 6 weeks summer break - yikes 🫣🤣

I know the C word is still quite a few weeks away but there’s no harm in getting in there early …

After a great year and school I wanted to give the teachers a little gift that hopefully was useful to them.

I thought a personalised pencil case would be something that would come in handy along with some new pens for the new term in Sept 🍎 all the colours for each teacher were picked by the mini so at least some part of it came from her ⭐️ 🩷
